The U.S. Thanksgiving Holiday which falls on Thursday, November 23, 2023 is coming up and we want to share our shipment processing schedule. While our U.S. based partner carriers will close for the holiday all Chit Chats branches will operate with regular business hours.
Please keep in mind that there may be some tracking delays for your U.S. & International shipments due to increased volume and holiday closures. We recommend planning in advance and informing your customers.
Lastly, don’t forget to review our recommended holiday shipping deadlines as a number of cut-off dates are fast approaching! If you have any additional questions about services or processing times contact our support team today.
